To promote trade, the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) and the Nigeria Customs Service ( NCS) are collaborating to introduce the much-awaited Single Window (SW) platform at the ports.
A statement made available, on Friday, in Lagos by the General Manager, Public Affairs of NPA, Chief Michael Ajayi, said the Managing Director, Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA), Ms Hadiza Usman, disclosed this during a courtesy visit to the Comptroller-General of Customs, Retired Col Hameed Ali in Abuja.
According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), Usman said the two agencies had embarked on the establishment of a Single Window through an intense automation and introduction of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) at ports.
She said the adoption of a single window would make Nigerian ports competitive in the international trade network and boost the trade facilitation programme of the government.
The NPA Managing Director said the synergy on single window would boost government’s revenue and promote Public Private Participation (PPP) through the attraction of local and Foreign Direct Investments (FDIs), adding that the government was aware of its responsibilities to create the enabling business environment to realise its objectives.
